Our work creates lasting value for the communities we serve while generating strong, risk-adjusted returns for our development partners and capital investors.
HEALTHCARE PROJECT OF THE YEAR
Most recently, our redevelopment of the Shops at RedBird was named 2026 Healthcare Project of the Year by D Magazine, a milestone project anchored by UT Southwestern Medical Center, Parkland Health, and a new Children’s Medical Center within a reimagined regional mall.
This recognition reflects our intentional approach to development, creating projects that not only perform but also uplift communities and drive lasting, meaningful change.
OAK CLIFF NEXT BIG THING: Building on the momentum of the award-winning Shops at RedBird, Russell Glen’s next transformational development is RIVULET, a 90-acre, master-planned community envisioned as a new place to call home for Southern Dallas. Located across from the University of North Texas at Dallas, Rivulet will introduce new residential homes, a new public library + innovation center, office space, and a planned grocery-anchored retail destination, bringing together living, learning, working, and daily life in one thoughtfully designed environment.
We believe former malls represent one of the greatest opportunities for transformational redevelopment. Once the heartbeat of their communities, these sites are uniquely positioned to become the next generation of civic, healthcare, and mixed-use anchors. OVER FOUR MILLION SQUARE FEET OF LEGACY RETAIL REIMAGINED.
Russell Glen brings deep experience reimagining regional malls into vibrant centers of activity—from regional parks and innovation centers to award-winning healthcare destinations. By honoring their historic role and rethinking their future, we modernize these assets to deliver greater impact, relevance, and long-term value for the communities they serve.
“For West Ridge Mall, our firm knew that we needed a real estate development company like Russell Glen, which has an impeccable reputation and extensive experience in the retail space. After touring the Former Red Bird Mall project in Dallas, we were sold.”
From master-planned communities and grocery-anchored centers to regional healthcare campuses, Russell Glen delivers impact at scale. Our developments are designed to meet essential needs, strengthen local ecosystems, and restore long-term stability to the communities they serve.
WE BELIEVE MEANINGFUL COMMUNITY IMPACT AND STRONG FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE ARE NOT MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE - THEY ARE DIRECTLY CONNECTED. By focusing on uses that drive daily relevance and long-term demand, our projects create durable value for communities while delivering disciplined, risk-adjusted returns for our capital partners
